That'd be fun if we could figure out how Seguin's pace compared to others as the season progresses. In sure Ralph and Razor will report on his record threatening, who he's passing on the franchise all-time list, etc. as we get further along into the season. That should be exciting.
I know this is from last season, but I'm just seeing it now and figured I'd chip in what I can for now. It's late and my wife just got home from work too so I'd better make her something to eat. Will try to contribute more maybe tomorrow or something like that.
1997-98 Mike Modano
1st half: 15 goals, 38 points, 30 games (league's leading scorer at the time)
2nd half: 6 goals, 21 points, 22 games
Total: 21 goals, 59 points, 52 games
-I always feel like this would have been Mike's best season had he not taken that Bryan Marchment knee. Possible hardware year for him, ala Joe Sakic 2000-01.
1993-94 Mike Modano
1st half: 27 goals, 53 points, 42 games
2nd half: 23 goals, 40 points, 34 games
Total: 50 goals, 93 points, 76 games
-Another year Mike could have been bigger statistically without missing games. NHL played 84 this year so bit of a cheat, but with 8 extra games, even just 6 to make it 82, very likely 100+ points, maybe even 55 goals to tie Dino and Bellows.
1990-91 Neal Broten
1st half: 11 goals, 43 points, 40 games
2nd half: 2 goals, 26 points, 39 games
Total: 13 goals, 69 points, 79 games
-Not Neal's greatest season statistically, his offense began taking a step back, as Dave Gagner and a young Mike Modano were chipping at ice time and opportunity. Had a damn good playoff though. Not really a season worth noting, but figured I would just for contrast, and because I have the info, so what the heck.
1989-90 Brian Bellows
1st half: 24 goals, 44 points, 40 games
2nd half: 31 goals, 55 points, 40 games (Included a 15 game point streak Feb 27 - Mar 31 where he scored 17 goals and 27 points)
Total: 55 goals, 99 points, 80 games
-NHL 2nd Team All-Star LW
-Franchise record most points by a LW
-Franchise record most goals (tie)
1981-82 Bobby Smith
1st 15 games: 13 goals, 28 points
Total: 43 goals, 114 points, 80 games
-Franchise record most points
-Smith had 9 goals and 21 points after 14 games, then exploded for 4 goals and 7 points (franchise record) Nov 11 vs Winnipeg, giving him 13 goals and 28 points after just 15 games. Ended up with 43 goals and 114 points in 80 games
1981-82 Dino Ciccarelli
1st 15 games: 10 goals, 22 points
Total: 55 goals, 106 points, 76 games
-Franchise record most points by RW
-Franchise record most goals (tie)
-Dino had 9 goals and 17 points prior to game 15 vs Winnipeg. He missed 4 games that season and I'm not sure which games, so it's possible he hadn't played in all 14 to that point. Regardless, after his 1 goal and 5 points vs Winnipeg that night he sat with 10 goals and 22 points after the team's first 15 games. Ended up with 55 goals and 106 points in the 76 games.
